You
got your blood test results back and you found out your cholesterol
level is 300! You panic and listen fearfully to your doctor telling you
how the “bad” LDL cholesterol needs to be lowered immediately!
Medication? You are hesitating, since you’ve heard about statin’s negative effects
on your health like heart and liver problems, memory loss…Maybe you
better stop eating eggs and saturated fat and then it will all be good…?
Maybe you’d consider a cholesterol lowering supplement as well…
Reality
is that this scenario has to STOP! After all it’s about YOUR HEALTH.
It shouldn’t be about the doctor, the processed food industry and the
pharmaceutical company! Cholesterol numbers tell a different story than
the one you’ve probably heard from your doctor. Here are the most
important facts to know when you have high cholesterol:
”
The question is, why do some people have more cholesterol in their
blood than others, and why can the same person have different levels of
cholesterol at different times of the day? Why is our level of
cholesterol different in different seasons of the year? In winter it
goes up and in the summer it goes down. Why is it that blood cholesterol
goes through the roof in people after any surgery? Why does blood
cholesterol go up when we have an infection? Why does it go up after
dental treatment? Why does it go up when we are under stress? And why
does it become normal when we are relaxed and feel well? The answer to
all these questions is this: cholesterol is a healing agent in the body.” (Natasha Campbell–McBride)
